> Sometimes, a Git repository may only be available via an authenticatedSSH connection. Even in the case of repositories that only containfree software, this situation can arise for administrative orcompliance-related reasons. How can one define a package in such asituation?


Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this is possible now. All you have to do is pass a git-checkout record to the package source field instead of an origin (see the (guix git) module). For example:

(source
 (git-checkout
  (url "git <at> gitlab.com:luis-felipe/guile-lab.git")
  (commit (string-append "v" version))))

I'm using this for my private packages, and it seems to work.
